ST. Helena, the world-famed island where the
great Napoleon spent the last years of his
life. Mr.. Ellison was rendered the con-

that Colonel Robertson should not even seem
to disobey the law, but that Speaker Sayre
should .'preside" at the joint convention, as
there were several presidents in the States
for the Speaker so doing. But it
was the distinct understanding that
Speaker Sayre should preside and
that Green Smith should not preside 1t

1T is not pleasant or agreeable thing for
the Journal to criticise the action of any of
the Republican members Of the General As
sembly. To those who are disposed to be fair
and candid such statement is not necessary.
The interest the Journal has in the success of
the Republican party is as great as that of
any or all of the honorable legislators its rec
ord and work in the advocacy of Republican
principles will, probably, stand any reasonable
test. The Journal is not responsible for the
public feeling over the compromise" so
called. If gentlemen care to continue the
affectation that it is, we cannot help it.
But the feeling existed in Indianapolis,
almost universally, Immediately after the
terms of the agreement were made known
on Wednesday last, and nearly every
daily newspaper in the State had editorial
condemnation of it simultaneously with the
first article appearing in the Journal the fol-
lowing morning, while from various quarters
of the State came letters and kilograms criti-
Ching it long before what the Journal did say
or proposed to say could possibly be known.
tits simply absurd to credit or to charge the
Journal with the feeling existing throughout
the State, and that phase of the discussion
may as well be dropped here and now.

FASHIONED defense Of Dr. McGiynn, together

When Tribune reporter called at the palace
Archbishop Corrisan said he did NOT
desire to discuss Mr.. Davitts speech at length.
but he wished to protest against the attack on
Cardinal Simeoni The Cardinal he added,
lis the Holy Fathers secretary. What k6
does is done under the direction OF the
Pope himself. Consequently, the attack upon
the Cardinal is equivalent to attacking the Holt
Father. Mr.. Davitt might just as we'll have at

A DEpRAVED BUSINESS.

De mortuis nil nisi bonum seems to be
forgotten sentiment. The evil that men do
nowadays lives after them, and the good is
generally inferred with their bones. The re-
vival of scandals about dead men by the press
is enough to make self-respecting men avoid
public life. The post of honor is a private
station The retailing of the weaknesses of
great men after their death is a more dis
reputable business than body .snatching.
The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette,
unfortunately, has had numerous per-
sonal controversies with many Of
our most distinguished men In its own
support it has more than once found it neces-
sary to publish private letters. It's unfortun-
ate publication of Grants letter concerning
Logan, just about the beginning of Logan's
last illness, is fresh in the memory of Logan's
friends. Learning nothing by experience, it
yesterday publishes several columns to prove
that Grant, during the war, was always in
great danger from an appetite for liquor, and
that he had to be watched and guarded like a
child to prevent his falling. Cui bonog
What useful purpose can be sub
served by such scandal mongeringg
We believe the press of this country of late
years has given altogether TOO much attention
and space to personalities The sanctity of
life and death alike are invaded, and morbid
curiosity is everywhere aroused and stimu-
lated. 1t is depraved taste that grows by
what it feeds or. It gives a premium to idle
gossip and scandal. and it makes vice familiar.
It is in every way demoralizing and in no way
beneficial. 1t is much better to advertise vir-
tue than vice. It is much better to educate
the public sense than to pan6er to a morbid
taste. The publications respecting General
Grant are without any possible excuse, and are
| unworthy the persons engaged in the work.
